Go around on the edges where yon haven't been in some
time, and notice how the bungalows are springing up every
where.
See how the long line of residences is reaching far out into
the fields, new streets being opened up everywhere, and the
building zone constantly pushed further out. Soon it will be a
serious matter to find a. desirable building lot in four or five
miles of center.
Prudent people who can see a little ahead should provide
a home site now. A vacant lot bought now will keep all right
until the time comes when it is needed for actual building. We
have nice lots at all prices and can make easy terms.

HERE TO RALLY
GA. ‘SISTERS'
Mrs. M. E. Long, Special En
voy of T. R., Is a Conserva
tive Progressive.
In Mrs. M. E. Long, of New York,
who came to Atlanta as special envoy
of the Bull Moose national c ommittee
to rally Georgia women, the Roosevelt
party has a conservative Progressive,
a believer in woman's suffrage, but not
a suffragette who thinks that woman’s
influence should be educational first
and political last, ,
From this angle Mrs. Long will try
to convince Georgia women that the
Progressive party should have their
support, if not in open and unqualified
adherance, at least in sympathy.
“Can women forever stand in the
background and not realize the duty
that they owe to themselves and their
sisters?” she asked. "I had not been in
Atlanta 30 minutes before I read in
The Georgian a statement of your vice
commission that many young women
took to the streets because they were
not paf # d a living wage.
“Can Atlanta women or any women
where this exists overlook their own
guilt in this? All the time they are
sitting calmly and letting this condition
go on they are sharing in the crime,
for it is a crime, Women must first
rise to their duty as women.
"I am here, not as a political dele
gate from the Progressive party
merely to rally the women of Georgia
to the party’s cause, but to make them
feel that they are a part of a great
movement that is bigger than a mere
party.
"It is like missionary work, this
campaign among women for the Pro
gressive party. It is rousing women to
a responsibility which heretofore they
have evaded or did not know existed.”
Mrs. Long did not Insist that the
Progressive party would sweep the
country. She said that she would be
content to know that the ideas of the
new party had taken root.
"We can wait four years,” she said.
“It isn’t such a long time.”
Mrs. Long expects to be in Georgia
until the state is organized in Pro
gressive leagues, following a plan in
operation- in other sections.
It has been the plan of the women
high in the councils of the Progressive
party to insist upon one or more wom
en—at least one woman—on each state
or central committee and each county
committee attached to the state and
county headquarters.

“Cop” Didn't Have Heart
To Stop Thief Chase.
When the Albert Thorntons went
away for a trip and left their home at
Peachtree and Third streets in charge
of the butler, they didn’t anticipate a
burglar’s visit. But the butler did, and
he armed himself with a revolver.
The burglar called a day or two ago
and the first loot he gathered was the
butler’s pistol, which had been left on
the dining room table. He picked up a
few other trifles, when the butler en
tered and was “stuak up” by his own
gun. Then the thief jumped through
a window and went down Third street
very rapidly, with the butler close be
hind.
A policeman was walking his beat
at the next corner when the pursued
and the pursuer started his way.
"Stop him!” yelled the butler. The
copper smiled and permitted the negro
to speed past. But the butler was
gaining, so the burglar paused long
enough to send a bullet whizzing to
ward him. Then he went on and was
nabbed by another policeman, half a
mile, further on.
"Why didn’t you stop that man when
I yelled at you?” the panting butler
asked the first cop-afterward.
"Aw shucks,” returned that guardfan
of the city. "I thought you was just
playing."
EIGHT YEARS IN PRISON

MONTGOMERY, ALA., Oct. B.—Eight
years in the penitentiary, J. M. Lam

which he has been longing to perfect
himself in a study of the Bertlllon sys

tendent of education of Geneva county,
a highly educated young man, sent up
this summer after escape and recap
ture.
The convict department has assigned
Lammons to the study and installation
of the Bertillon system of measurement
at the penitentiary. He writes to Sher
iff Hood, of Montgomery, that the work
will require a year, but he expects to
make it the best in the United States.
“1 hope to make myself an authority
on the work,” he says, “since I new
have the opportunity.”

MOULTRIE, GA., Oct. B.—John
Smallwood, a negro preacher, imbued
with religious fervor by his own
preaching, shouted so loud and so ve
hemently that he is dead. More than
1,000 negroes attended his funeral.
After conducting a protracted meet
ing for several days near Pavo, he en
deavored to bring it to a dramatic close
by beseeching the sinners to come to
the mourners’ bench before it was too
late. yVarmed up to a high pitch at the
close of his sermon, he began to shout
and pace the aisles. Others caught up
the shouting and the congregation be
came hysterically excited. Several men
rushed around the preacher. In the
crush Smallwood was internally In
jured. He died next day.

Atrocities Practiced by Peru
vian Estate Managers Told
of by English Traveler.
LONDON, Oct. B.—Those who have
been prone to regard light-heartedly
the revelations concerning the ntf.thods
of rubber gathering in Peru should read
the remarkable letter in The Tinies
from F. H. Fawcett. He says:
“Agents, half caste men, are hired to
get labor. They are advanced money.
They visit Indians on the Altiplanicie
tempt them with the advances of sums
unheard of by the poor Indian, highly
color the life and profits, make them
drunk, perhaps, anyway finally obtain a
paper signed, or alleged to have been
signed, pledging their miserable posses
sion of a hut, a potato patch and a
llama against a contract to gather so
many quintals of rubber (a quintal be
ing 100 pounds).
“The Indian, on recovery from his
debauch, is forcibly dragged away
(proceeding's at which the law winks)
to the rubber estates. He is debited
with everything, has to purchase his
tools, his clothing and his food at ex
orbitant rates from the establishment
store, paying for it all prospectively in
rubber, for which he has been promised
the equivalent of about $32.30 per
quintal.
Women Bought and Sold.
“He has to work under half caste
task masters, often multi-murderers,
and is required to transport his own
food and rubber (weighing 100 pounds)
over trails no reader would care to tra
verse free from a load.”
There is no medical service, and Mr.
Fawcett frankly declares that the whole
business is brutalizing.
Men, women and children are bought
and sold for personal service. Parents
sell daughters. The brutal apprecia
tion of life is such that there is no se
curity in the Peruvian forests for the
possession of children.
It is a mistake, he points out, to sup
pose that it is only a degenerate class
of Peruvian who is guilty of abuses.
They are perpetrated by foreigners of
various nationalities whose better In
stincts, if they ever had any, have been
blunted by the greed for profit, and
whose license is encouraged by an im
munity from scandal.
Escape for an employee is very diffl.
cult, from many places impossible.
They do, however, get away sometimes.
In escaping they abandon everything
but their lives. They can stay and
probably die. knowing they can neve'
be out of debt.
RILEY EXHIBIT SHOWN
AT PUBLIC LIBRARY
ON POET’S BIRTHDAY
The bulletin board at Carnegie libra
ry shows an interesting collection of
pictures celebrating the birthday of
James Whitcomb Riley, which is being
generally celebrated throughout the
country today.
Besides an excellent picture of the
Hoosier poet, the exhibit shows a sac
simile from his poems, and pictures of
Lockerbie street, and the house in
which Riley was born. Major Charles
W Hubner has a poetic tribute to Riley.
The shelf below the pictures has a
collection of poems by Riley. Atlan
tans feel that they have some claim
on Mr. Riley, because of the great
friendship that existed between him and
Joel Chandler Harris, and among the
hest pictures ever made of the two is
one by a local photographer showing
